Good morning and happy Friday to all of you! We have a new Farm Fresh Challenge starting today over on the Greeting Farm Blog. It was my turn to choose the theme and I chose punches and/or dies ... easy peasy right?
I used the adorable Cheeky Lessons on my card. I just love this sassy little gal! I colored her with copics and colored pencils. I also used TGF's new Film & Polaroid Die. My papers are by My Mind's Eye and the sentiment is from PTI. Be sure to stop by the Greeting Farm Blog to see what the rest of the team is sharing over there. I hope you find some time to play along in our challenge this week!
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Hugs, Anita

Good morning to all of you! Today we are celebrating Yumi & Fumi Handmade's 1st Birthday with a blog hop and I want to thank Leanne for inviting me to play along with her amazing Design Team!

Good morning friends! Today over on the CC Designs Blog we are sharing some new projects featuring the fabulous images from the CC Designs July release.
I used this sweet CC Designs Swiss Pixie Summer Swing Birgitta and colored her with copics and colored pencils. The sentiment is from AmyR's Sweet Summer Sentiments - this stamp set has tons of fabulous sentiments. I can tell this set is going to be one of my favorite go-to sentiment sets. I used some of my older My Mind's Eye papers and added a doily, some ribbon, and a few buttons. Be sure to stop by the CC Designs Blog to see what the rest of the DT is sharing!
Thank you for stopping by.

Good afternoon friends! Well, it's Tuesday so that can only mean one thing ... we have a new inspiration post over on the By LORi Designs Blog.
I thought I would use one of Lori's adorable new digis, Lollipop Tubin' Tolla. Isn't she a cutie? Lori just recently added six new summer Lollipop digis and you can find all of them here. I colored Tolla with copics and colored pencils. And since Tolla just recently had a pedicure I made sure I colored her toenails pink and added some Glossy Accents to make them shiny. I know you can't really see that in the photo, but believe me they're pink and shiny lol! Be sure to stop by the By LORi Designs Blog to see what the rest of our DT is sharing today.
Thank you so much for stopping by!

Good morning to all of you. Yes, I do realize that the Independence Day celebrations have come gone here in the States, but I do have one more card I wanted to share with you.
This little cutie is Lollipop Independence Julie. I colored her with copics and colored pencils and then added just a tiny bit of Glamour Dust to the stars and ruffle on her dress. My papers are by Authentique and I love their 6 x 6 patriotic pad. A very CAS card with a little bit of hemp and a few diecut stars. Don't forget you can find Julie and tons of other sweet & summery images over in the By LORi Designs Digi Shop.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful week!
Hugs, Anita

Good morning friends! I hope you're enjoying your weekend. We have been getting so much rain in our area and the weather report shows rain almost every day for the next week. Geez, I think I need to get started on that ark! Well I know you didn't stop by to hear me complain about the weather so let me share a card I made using one of the new Sugar Nellie fairies.
This little sweetie is called A Little Bit Of Gossip ... isn't she adorable? I used my copics and colored pencils to color her and then added some Glamour Dust to her flowers and wings. I also added some Glossy Accents to the little lady bug. My papers are by Maja Design (thanks Elaine) and they're such gorgeous papers that I really want to just hoard them. But I've been trying to make myself use them lol. I added a bow, some pearls, and a birthday sentiment to finish my card. You can find this lovely fairy over at Funky Kits.
Thank you so much for stopping by.
Hugs, Anita

Hello friends! I just wanted to let you know that C.C. Designs' new July stamps and dies are now available over in the store . Happy shopping!
Hugs, Anita
Hello sweet friends. For those of you in the States, I hope you had a fabulous holiday! We went to a cook-out with lots of yummy food and also went to see our local fireworks. Even though we live in a tiny little town, thanks to lots of local businesses donating $$$ we have an amazing fireworks display each year :) So anyway, we have a new Farm Fresh Friday challenge starting over on the Greeting Farm Blog today. Our lovely Rosie chose our theme this week and she wants to see "red, white & blue with ribbon".
I used this adorable Do Si Do Anya on my card. Of course you don't have to make a "patriotic" card ... just be sure to use the colors Rosie is requesting :) I've colored this sweetie with copics and colored pencils. I used my Doodlebug Designs paper and cut circles with my nestabilities, and cut some stars using my star die. I added some ribbon and tied on a little tag to finish my card. Please be sure to stop by the Greeting Farm Blog to see what the rest of the DT is sharing. I hope you play along with us this week because of course there's a chance to win some yummy rubber!
Thanks for stopping by.
Hugs, Anita
